Peridot X Reader

Mending broken Parts

G/N's P.O.V

I ran over to Peridot as fast as I could, but I couldn't catch her. I didn't understand. I DON'T understand. Why wouldn't we shatter her. I believe that you get what you give, and Jasper gave me a whole world of pain. I was going to give everything back. Worse, she hurt my friends! She hurt my Peri! I didn't want her to hurt anyone ever again. I was going to end it, once and for all.

I glanced at the orange gem with such bitter resentment. If it wasn't for her, Peridot would still love me. Every second I looked at Jasper's gem, I grew angrier. All I want is for Peri to love me. I want her to love me a fraction of the amount I love her. I felt tears of sorrow roll down my cheeks. "Oh, Peri.." I muttered through the tears. I needed to apologies to her.

I sprinted up to the barn and searched for her. After looking around for a bit, I shuffled outside to look for her. Soon after I left, I heard noises from inside the barn and shout right back over to the barn.

"Peridot!" I screamed, "I'm sorry! Can we talk!". Once again tears began to swell in my eyes and flow down my face. I soon spotted her and dashed toward her. "Peridot!" I exclaimed. Suddenly this sour and solemn moment had turned a new leaf. But to my dismay, it did not say that way. Peridot did not respond. She, too, had been crying, but she did not have the melancholy look of sorrow. As I studied her expression further, I discovered that she was angry.

"Peridot I'm so sorry! I never wanted to hurt you! Can we just tal-"

"No." She simply stated. "I don't want to talk. Just leave me alone." She murmured. I froze solid as if this entire planet discontinued it's rotation.

"Wha..." I started, "Peri, I'm sorry."

"I said NO!" Peridot yelled, "I need some time to think. Just... let me have some time to think. Please."

Bitter silence filled the room. "... Ok" I hesitantly excepted. It wasn't like me to just except something like this, but I wanted to do something for her. If this is what she wants, then I will just have to live with that. Still.. there was something in me that didn't want this. I defiantly don't want this, but she needs some space. We all do.

I walked down to the beach and sat down by the ocean. I watched the waves attempt to reach me, but every time they tried, it resulted in failure. It was all too familiar of my current situation. I didn't know if anything would ever be the same. I'm not used to all this change. For a while everything was the same. It was nice, but now... I can never go back. What I did was horrible. I let my anger get the best of me and now I've ruined my chances with Peridot. Not that I ever had a chance anyway.

My thoughts were  interrupted by soft foot steps on the crunchy sand. I soon realized it was the pearl. I was surprised because I was sure it would be the steven. "Oh.. Hi Pearl." I said, not even looking at her. She asked me if I was ok. "Y-yeah." I lied. I didn't want to talk right now. I was too emotional, but then again the Steven has told me before that letting out emotions to another person feels good, so maybe it's worth a shot. Though, I doubt she'll understand.

"Pearl,  can I tell you something." I asked.

"Okay.." She responded

"I did something terrible, and I don't think Peridot will ever forgive me. You probably don't understand, though."

I watched as her eyes quickly got wide. "Actually, I do understand. I guess.. the best you can do is give them space and let them resolve their conflict, before you try to solve yours. Just... don't do what I did and beg for forgivness constantly. It doesn't help." Pearl said as she gave me a patient smile

"How will I know that she's ready?" I inquired

"You won't. That's up to her to decide" she stated, "I hope this helped. Maybe you should try and talk to her now? It has been a bit, but don't push, ok?" I nodded and watched her get up.I thought about her words for a moment. I know things will never be the same, but maybe I can still have a relationship with Peridot. It doesn't matter how, I just want her in my life. I swiftly stood up and made haste up to the barn.

When I got in there I noticed Peridot still standing in the same place. "Peridot. I have something to say to you." She looked up with her teary eyes. I couldn't believe I was doing this. "Peridot.. I.. I-"

"You what!" She yelled impatiently, "You're sorry! I don't care! I just want to be happy with you, but I can't do that when you are off shattering gems! If you never want to see jasper again, then let's solve this problem together!" Once again, silence filled the room, but this time it was different. It was no longer somber, but hopeful.

I soon noticed I still help Jasper's gem in my hand. I opened up my hand and Peri came near. We looked at her gem as a bubble soon surrounded the stone. As the bubble disappeared, so did the world. It felt as though there was nothing, but me and her.

"Peri," I whispered, "I love you."

Sorry for not updating for so long! I made an extra long chapter to make up for that. I am planning on ending this book sometime soon. If you have any idea that will keep this book going please comment below! I hope you enjoyed this chapter! Bye!
